Greek appellate council to rule, for third time, whether ex-stats agency head to face criminal trial

A council of appellate justices will decide, for a third time, whether the former head of Greece's statistics authority, Andreas Georgiou, will be tried on charges of inflating the state's primary budget deficit for 2009 and thereby causing the country to seek an international bailout - an inflammatory and widely repeated claim by anti-bailout and populist political forces since 2010.
